Chapter 10 Rebellious Soldiers (Additional update 23 for the alliance leader, Qingshan)(1/2)

The fire in Luoyang City only lasted for three or four days and ended quickly.

King Sima Jiong of Qi never expected that he would end up like this after he went to great lengths to invite all the kings' entourage and party members out of the city.

The confidant general Dong Ai had 2,000 followers, while Changsha Wang Sima Yi only had a hundred followers. In the end, he forced them to make a comeback and win a great victory.

Before his death, Sima Jiong felt aggrieved, but there was nothing much to say about the success of the king and the defeat of the bandit.

It was also at this moment that he suddenly realized his conscience.

Since the first year of Yuankang (291), when Jia Nanfeng summoned King Sima Wei of Chu to the capital to kill his relative Yang Jun, the world was in chaos.

Prime Minister Yang Jun, Emperor Shi Wei Guan, King Sima Wei of Chu, King Sima Liang of Runan, deposed prince Sima Yu, King Sima Lun of Zhao and other famous ministers and kings were killed successively. Now it is his turn to be King Sima Jiong of Qi.

There is his younger brother Sima Shi, King of Beihai.

Most of the descendants of the Sima family died at the hands of the descendants of the Sima family.

Most of the troops and horses of the Sima family were consumed in conquering each other.

The world of the Sima family is gradually collapsing.

It’s really your own fault!

He laughed twice and closed his eyes.

The sword struck down quickly, and Sima Jiong's head fell outside the Chang Hemen.

After his death, his three sons were sent to Jinyong City and imprisoned, and all his followers were from the Yi tribe.

The power of Sima Jiong, the once illustrious King of Qi, disappeared.

The emperor, who was still in shock, issued a general amnesty to the whole world. He couldn't even wait for the last few days of the year and immediately changed the Yuan Dynasty to Tai'an.

Sima Yi, the king of Changsha, was also in a state of distress. His first task was to persuade the Guanzhong soldiers and horses who had marched to Xin'an County, the west gate of Luoyang, to retreat. The second was to appease the tens of thousands of Yuzhou soldiers who were still outside the city.

The latter was easy to deal with. Sima Jiong was dead and the imperial court issued an edict to retreat. Those soldiers and military households had no reason to work for Sima Jiong anymore. They might as well rush home as soon as possible to work on spring plowing.

Moreover, after Sima Ji launched an army to fight against the rebellion, in order to show his integrity, he resigned from the post of governor of Yuzhou. Now the person in charge of Xuchang is General Annan, who oversees the military affairs of Yuzhou. King Fanyang, Sima Hui (xiāo), asked him to take the troops back.

The former is more troublesome and requires complicated exchange of interests.

The two kings of Chengdu and Hejian originally planned to lead their troops to the capital. They expected that Sima Yi would not be able to deal with Sima Jiong, so they planned to use him to create chaos in Luoyang, and then the armies of Chang'an and Yecheng swarmed into the capital to seize power.

But who would have thought that Sima Yi fought to the death and actually killed Sima Ji, and at the same time took control of the government. As soon as the emperor's edict was issued, the two kings of Hejian and Chengdu lost the legality to enter the capital. At this moment, they were probably in a hurry

Jumping.

King Sima Yue of the East China Sea immediately lined up as the new winner and attached himself to King Sima Yi of Changsha.

To be honest, it's a little ugly, because he didn't do anything in this war. But he also has a reason. He only has fifty attendants issued by the court, no soldiers and no power, so what can he do?

Perhaps Sima Yi needed to win over the king of the clan, so he gave Sima Yue some benefits: he added 3,000 households and recommended a subordinate to be the governor of Donghai County.

You must know that before this, although Sima Yue granted six counties, it did not mean that these six counties were under his control, because he only had 5,000 households, and he did not hold the titles of governor, governor, etc.

Compared with other sect kings, it is a bit worse.

This time, the military and political affairs have been grasped, and he can finally be on par with other sect kings.

Actually, this is not a great benefit, but Sima Yue didn't do anything, right?

He did not have the courage to risk everything, he did not dare to make plans in advance like Sima Yi did, and he did not dare to fight to the death like he did with only more than a hundred party members at hand.

High risk and high return, low risk and return would be great, don’t ask for too much.

After the situation inside Luoyang City stabilized, the chaos outside the city had just begun...

****

In the boundless wilderness, there are people fleeing everywhere.

They were driven away by rioters.

Sima Jiong was dead, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from the Yuzhou Dudu District were at a loss. They didn't know where to go. Before Xuchang sent people to bring them back, they broke into chaos.

Most people are ready to go home.

The soldiers were not recruiting soldiers, they had no military pay, they were poor, and the deepest desire in their hearts was to go home. After losing the one they worked for, they had no reason to stay in Luoyang.

Before leaving, some "little clever guys" decided to grab a piece of it. After all, they didn't even have severance pay. After they started taking action, more rebels joined in, and the looting began to spread.

Part of the Yamen Imperial Army stationed outside the city received orders from the Northern Army Lieutenant Commander and went out in large numbers to quell the rebellion. The looting Yuzhou soldiers could not resist, and they broke up and fled. Therefore, the looting around Luoyang was quickly eliminated.

There is only some aftermath left.

But even these aftermaths are enough for many people to drink a pot...

On the Lantern Festival, there were many soldiers standing on the wall of Panyuan Garden, and the drums were beating loudly.

"Whoosh!" An arrow flew out and nailed a arrogant rebel to the ground.

"Whoosh!" Another arrow was shot out, killing another person.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Shao Xun walked up and down the courtyard wall, which could accommodate two or three people walking side by side. From time to time, he picked up his bow and arrows, and almost never missed, killing a group of hundreds of soldiers who were terrified.

Some news from Luoyang has been transmitted one after another. There is no complete picture, only bits and pieces, and it is difficult to tell whether it is true or false. But that is for other people, and for a time traveler like Shao Xun, it is enough to complete the entire story.

Puzzle finished.

He has been thinking recently, what has he gained in the past year?

After thinking about it, the biggest achievement is that I changed from captain to team leader, even though I was in charge of a group of teenagers ranging from seven or eight years old to sixteen or seventeen years old.

This result has great plasticity and growth potential, and he has been working hard in this direction.

In addition, the second greatest achievement is to gain the trust of Princess Donghai, who is actually in charge of Pan Yuan - he thinks.

The princess approved of his behavior of teaching reading and calligraphy, and did not think that he was a "bad boy". At the same time, through the relationship with the Sikong Mansion, she sent a large number of pens, ink, paper and inkstones.

To a certain extent, this gave Shao Xun's various actions legitimacy.

He has been thinking recently that this relationship needs to be maintained well and to tap into its potential. He has already felt the princess's uneasiness - in fact, at this moment, security is an absolute rarity and luxury - and subconsciously wants to do something, then

This is his chance.

Other than that, there doesn't seem to be much to do.

It's a bit frustrating and sad, but this is reality.

Not everyone is qualified to play with the chessboard, most people are just chess pieces after all.

The wisest thing to do now is to follow Sima Yue's "progress" and "progress".

Sima Yue has already killed his two "eldest brothers" Sima Lun and Sima Jiong, and now Sima Yi is his third eldest brother. Will he take advantage of the chaotic situation to recruit people and make plans secretly?

He believes it will be, because this is the answer of history.

In addition to political party members, military power must also be Sima Yue's top priority.

During the Sima Lun Rebellion, the Luoyang Forbidden Army was deeply involved and attacked and killed each other, resulting in heavy losses.

During this war, the Forbidden Army stood aside for almost the whole process, and even closed the gates of Luoyang City at critical moments. The seven Suwei troops stationed in the city were like deaf and blind men, neither protecting the emperor nor sending troops to quell the chaos. They stationed themselves in the suburbs of Luoyang.

Only when the overall situation was decided, the Yamen armies went out in large numbers to eliminate the foreign soldiers who took advantage of the chaos and looted.

Is their performance satisfactory? No, no one is.

Both the emperor and the prince were dissatisfied.

There is a high probability that the Northern Army's Lieutenant Commander will be punished, and the generals of the Forbidden Army will inevitably defect to Sima Yi. What will Sima Yue think then? Will he have a strong urge to expand the size of his private army?

This is the opportunity.

Although the benefits may not fall on you, there is no doubt that opportunities are opportunities.

So, it seems that more performance is needed.

"Whoosh!" The long arrow shot through the air and directly shot down a knight who was waving his whip to drive away the rebel infantry.

The soldiers on the courtyard wall cheered and made a lot of noise.

Shao Xun put down his bow and subconsciously glanced at Yang Bao, the leader of the eighth team, who was waiting behind the courtyard gate.

He suspected that this grandson had filed a black lawsuit because he had been dealt with by him before, and Team 8 was one of the so-called main teams. Of course, the team leader wanted to go further.

Speaking of which, it was all Du Bo’s fault!

Who doesn’t want to be promoted?

There is competition here, and anything that happens is normal.

At the same time, Shao Xun was also a little emotional.

They, a group of people full of crooked melons and cracked jujubes, actually fought like this. Should we say that the lower-level military households are too clumsy?

But in a time of great strife, it seems that you have to be the king of scrolls, otherwise you will be the fate of cannon fodder, although the king of scrolls is also very likely to kill himself.

Yang Bao listened to the louder cheers coming from his ears, feeling quite unhappy and even a little afraid.

The thief Shao Xun is really good at martial arts, but I don’t know where he learned it.

He had seen with his own eyes that when Shao Xun touched a long knife, his movements changed from hesitant at first, to gradually becoming more proficient, and then to perfection.
To be continued...
